You can't eat the Bible, send food. Small consolation that you are at peace with God while you're dying of starvation.

They will get food and water but will they save their souls.

John 4:13-14 (New International Version)

13Jesus answered, "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life."

You obviously have no idea how important a Bible would be to a Christian. I know that is something you cannot understand.

Dont you know

But He answered and said, "It is written, `MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD Matt 4:4

People have more than food needs and I am sure those are being addressed at the Astro Dome.

The are in the astrodome. I assure you they are eating their fill. We in Houston will take care of that. They have 2 hot meals, one mre, showers, clean restrooms, police security, and access to telcom.

Do you realize that Bibles are among the most requested items. Physical needs are not the only thing. Both types are being taken care of.

On the other hand, imagine the horror of being stuck in a crowded shelter for weeks with nothing to read? I'd go balmy and start eating the neighbors.

With all due respect, that is a stupid comment.

The people at the Astrodome are in HOUSTON. They are being well-fed. Houston doesn't need anybody to send food.

Nice gesture by the Gideons. I heard that people, while still in NO, were asking for Bibles.

Despite the degeneracy and bad behavior we'll all heard of, I know that there are good and decent people who have been brought to Houston and who will appreciate a copy of the scriptures.

I wouldn't go into panic mode if I were you. Christians, as well as everyone else, are giving food and water in plentiful supply.

Why does everyone choose to "snipe" at Christians when they exercise their first amendment rights?

Curious.

I'm sorry you don't understand this....

..but there is peace of God to be found.

These people are being given food, shelter and water, care and medicine...

..but the true peace of God will sustain them like nothing else!
